It will forever be known as Container Day. They are all in place...let the container shop be born. A huge shout out to some wonderful people who helped make this happen. The guys who made the containers and the contractors who I now consider friends. We all worked together to pull it off and it was about as good as you can do it. Then it snowed, a lot, the next day! So many transformations heading into the new year.

Last week before the snow came and real winter began, we received the first containers from SnapSpace Solutions, well really one container made into two. I designed this 40-foot container to become two containers with very different uses. The longer one is 31.5-feet will serve as wood storage and was accomplished by cutting off the cargo doors, removing an 8.5-foot section, and then the crew at SnapSpace simply welded the cargo door frame and doors back on. The "shorty" container was reinforced beautifully with angle welded around the perimeter of each open end of the container framing it and creating a fl**ge to which we will bolt the container to the garage and the double-40' shop, creating a breeeeway. So one 40' becomes two incredibly useful spaces. This week we will set the breezeway container, but first the underside of the floor needs to be insulated and the garage wall prepped to take the unit. It's going to be another interesting week on site. I am starting to look forward to getting back to boats!!!
